I <3 my nintendo DS
So with only 1 day left until I leave to go spend Christmas with my family in Norway, I figured Id make a little case for my nintendo DS. I love that little pink thing! Its so great for long flights, and hours of waiting at different airports, but last time I traveled, I remember getting so annoyed with having to search my purse to find those tiny little games, and my nintendo getting scratched! oh my!
I made a little case for it, with fabric from Etsy, cute little clear buttons, and some Love, Elsie ribbon!
It has fun little pockets on the back, for games, and each pocket holds 2 games. (yeah...I wish I had that many!)
If you like the fabric I used, here's a link to Sakurafabric, who sells it in her Etsy store :)
Well, I'm off to Norway, so I just wanna wish you all a merry Christmas, and a happy new year!
And Ill see you all in 2008! Ill be back January 4th! :)
xo, Silje.







OH MY! I love it. I NEED the pattern for that..please......
